mark's in vegas for a slot tourney with his dad. it's so wierd/strange to have someone so close to me that's into sitting down activities vs. working your ass off activities. who am i to judge? someone who is always on her feet and probably shouldn't be i guess ( Read more... )

I feel the same way as you about porn, and wish that I could offer some sort of advice for dealing with him and what he does. I can see how that would put a rift between you and him with your relationship. Sorry I can't be more helpful, but I'm supportive of any decision you make regarding it. <3

i guess his company must not have any female execs. i can't imagine them getting much "networking" done with all that distraction. it just sounds like an excuse for a boys' night out at company expense to me. i wonder though how much peer pressure there is to go (since some of the other guys' wives/girlfriends must have also said they don't like it) and how the others react to anyone who won't go. not that i think that's why he does it if he's also looking at the magazines but i wonder if he's also worried about what they'd say about him if he stopped going ( ... )

"chosen". lol.

uhm...exactly. of course people are going to get defensive about their job, heck i do everytime i talk to my mom about "working at a clothing store" which to her is pretty pathetic i guess. what do i do first? i defend myself and then if someone draws it out of me, i wind up crying and saying i know i'm just throwing my life away at some crummy job that doesn't challenge me enough.

was it long ago on oprah?

a few months ago i think. oprah has slide shows on her website, this is where that segment of the show started ( ... )

Hey, just wanted to drop my opinion in. Every guy i have ever dated has had some form of porn or another. I must say of all the nasty mags i have seen the girls in playboy are at least pretty and tis not all just legs spread nastiness. Hey, at least 70% of the mag is text, so take heart your guy is classy! But, i think that if you aren't comfortable with it, these is nothing wrong with telling him that you dont want it around you. I caught keegan looking up porn on my computer and told him that it felt it was degrading for him to do that when he had me, and that if he didnt stop i would buy gay mags so we could have penis pics all around the house (not that a penis is my favorite thing to look at but Jeesus did that help him get it!)

Are you coming to my 4th of july thingy too? Should i put it down as you plus one? Cant wait to see ya Fay Fay! Its been too damn long.
